Chapter 182 - Demon King City, Black Stone Throne
Chapter 182 Demon King City, Black Stone Throne
Roy had no choice but to escape now. No matter how fierce he was, it was impossible for him to fight against an army of hundreds of angels.
Unless Roy could use his status as a high-rank demon to gather a group of low-level demons around him, in which case, he might be able to try fighting this angel army. But it was hard to say who would win or lose.
In this angel army, the six blood-red-winged angels gave Roy a very bad feeling. In his Radiation Perception, the radiation energy emanating from these six blood-red-winged angels was very powerful! Almost every one of them was no worse than Uriel.
Roy did not understand what kind of angels those with blood-colored wings were because this was the first time he had encountered this type of angel. But this did not hinder him from judging the strength of both sides.
While flying southeast, Roy occasionally looked back to observe. He found that the angel army was still following him, but because of the difference in flying speeds, the formation of the angel army had changed dramatically.
The ones following Roy the closest were the six blood-red-winged angels. The radiation emanating from their bodies was like bright lights, and he could see them at a glance. With Roy’s eyesight, he could even see the furious and distorted expressions on their faces.
A little further back were some two-winged angel soldiers. These angel soldiers were probably original angels, so they were slightly stronger and could barely follow behind the six blood-red-winged angels. However, it was impossible for the artificial angel soldiers. During the long-distance flight, the distance between them and their teammates in front of them gradually widened bit by bit.
The entire angel army was being pulled into three segments during the pursuit…
But even so, Roy had no intention of stopping. Even if he were to stop now and would only fight the six blood-red-winged angels, if he could not quickly solve these six, the angel soldiers behind them would quickly surround him again. Roy could only continue flying forward. He could vaguely see the radiation source representing Julia in front.
Although he did not know why Julia wanted him to fly southeast, he guessed that she had her reasons for doing so.
After flying for more than two minutes, Roy caught up to Julia. Julia’s flying speed was slightly slower than Roy’s, so when she saw Roy catch up, she hugged Roy’s waist, pressing tightly against him, and pointed at the front. “Quick, continue flying. Hang on! we’re almost there!”
Although Roy was now holding Julia, his flying speed did not slow down. Roy’s definition for his demon wings was ‘Mach Flight’. This definition was equivalent to keeping his speed constant, and he would not slow down because of addtional weight.
“Where are we going?” Roy asked Julia while flying.
“A volcanic crater!” Julia replied. “In that volcano, there’s a spatial channel that leads to the alternate space where the Black Stone Throne!”
Roy’s spirits instantly rose when he heard this. Julia was quite clever. Being chased by these angels, they would indeed be safer hiding in an alternate space. Otherwise, Roy had no doubt that these fellows, who wanted to avenge Uriel, would chase him all the way to the end of the world…
While hugging Roy tightly, Julia turned around and looked at the six four-winged angels following closely behind. She said hatefully, “Damn it. They’re actually blood angels! These guys are staking everything.”
“Blood angel? What the hell is that?” Roy asked loudly. “An angel of vengeance who has made the Blood Oath!” Julia also explained loudly. “With the oath, they can temporarily obtain powerful strength. With six blood angels, they’re almost capable of killing demon lords!”
“It seems like we can only hide in an alternate space!” Roy took out a tactical nuclear bomb from the system space and handed it to Julia. “I’ve already installed the detonator. Throw it out and let them have a good time!”
Roy could feel that the six blood angels behind were slowly pulling closer to him. They seemed to be willing to expend a large amount of magic power to increase their speed, and it would be troublesome if the angels intercepted them before they entered the volcano.
Julia hugged Roy tightly with one hand and grabbed the missile Roy handed her with the other. This missile felt too big for her, but she could still hold it stably with her strength.
For some reason, Julia was a little excited when she held this missile. She had seen Roy use these human weapons before and felt that the explosions were quite powerful. So at this time, Julia felt like a child who was setting off firecrackers for the first time, nervous and excited.
Following what Roy said, Julia pressed the button on the detonator and quickly threw the missile without using much strength. The missile went toward the blood angels behind them.
“Be careful!” Seeing Julia throwing the ‘cannonball’, the blood angels were alarmed. They had seen the power of this thing exploding earlier, so they hurriedly flew and spread to the sides.
However, when the missile flew down the path they made, it suddenly exploded!
Boom! A dazzling flash of light appeared in the sky again. The six blood angels swayed from the blast of air, almost falling.
They were fine, but the explosion blocked them, and they were a little farther away from Roy. However, the angel soldiers slightly farther behind were unlucky. As they advanced, they collided with the huge blast wave head-on. Under the confrontation of the two forces, they were squeezed to the point of almost vomiting blood!
In this way, Roy and Julia threw tactical nuclear bombs from time to time to stop the angels from advancing. The two sides were in a deadlock as they flew hundreds of kilometers.
At this time, the terrain below changed. A continuous mountain range appeared on the ground, and at the same time, a colossal volcano was in sight.
This volcano was very famous in this world because it was full of scorching flames and magma. Someone had once vowed that they had seen demons fly out of the volcanic crater, so the humans of this world called this place the ‘Gate of Hell’!
Of course, although the people of this world called this volcano this name, they did not believe it deep down. Before angels and demons came to this world, scientific thought had always occupied a superior position in the minds of humans. This so-called Gate of Hell was more like a method to attract tourists.
But who knew that this place was really a ‘gate of hell’?
In fact, there were many entrances to alternate spaces on this Earth. They were the gates that could connect to other alternate spaces. However, these gates to alternate spaces were not like the huge vortexes that movies depicted. But they were rather ordinary and without the slightest flaw.
It was like you were clearly looking at a mountain or a wall in front of you, but when you bumped into it, you would find yourself in another space.
Of course, you could enter some alternate spaces in this way, but some were ‘encrypted’ and required ‘unlocking’ to enter.
Under Julia’s guidance, Roy flew to the crater and quickly rushed into the volcano. The blood angels behind them seemed to realize what Roy and Julia were trying to do, and they quickly expended a large amount of magic power to accelerate.
After breaking through the volcanic smog formed from sulfur smoke and countless particles, Roy and Julia arrived at the bottom of the volcano. Although the magma here was not completely cooled, it formed a fragile solidified layer on the surface. Roy stepped on it carefully, and magic power poured out from his feet. He used frost to solidify the magma a bit more before putting Julia down. Holding her fallen angelic sword, Julia walked to the volcanic wall and stabbed the sword into a rock on it.
Then a strange scene happened. Her sword did not pierce through the rock, but the place where Julia’s sword stabbed was rippling, and the front part of her sword disappeared!
As Julia slowly turned her sword, the ripples created by spatial fluctuations were gradually expanding.
“As a personal guard, His Majesty Samael bestowed me the right to enter the Black Stone freely!” Julia explained without looking back. “This sword is the ‘key’ to open the space where the demon king city is. But after the Corruption power eroded the Black Stone, His Majesty Samael had no choice but to move out. It has been a long time since I’ve been to the Black Stone, so I’m not sure what it’s like inside. If… I mean if the Black Stone has been completely eroded, then what awaits us will also be huge trouble! After all, if Corruption is really the Void power you mentioned…”
“Hurry up. We don’t have a choice now!” Roy looked up the crater above. There, six blood angels were roaring and already charging straight down…
After hearing this, Julia did not say anything else and continued to turn her longsword slowly. With a ‘pop’, a circular channel opened up, and they could even see the scene of the opposite world through it.
However, Roy and Julia no longer had the time to look. She withdrew her longsword and jumped in with Roy!
Just after they entered, the channel began to close slowly. But unexpectedly, just as the channel was about to close, the six blood angels arrived, and they seized the last opportunity to rush into the channel…
